Hi, all

I'm using "top" tool to display top CPU processes and system running information in my Embedded Linux based on PowerPC. But, when I run "top" command in prompt #, it's coming on:

# set
PS2=>
PS1=#
IFS=
USER=root
SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
HOME=/
TERM=ansi
#
# top
top: Unknown terminal "ansi" in $TERM
#

I changed to :

# export TERM=VT100
# set
PS2=>
PS1=#
IFS=
USER=root
SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
HOME=/
TERM=VT100
# top
top: Unknown terminal "VT100" in $TERM
#

Another question:

How to use "top" with option to save cpu information to a log file?

Thanks for any help.
